Hello,

first off, thank you for this great extension!

I installed it on J!3.1.1 and it works as expected.

Now I want to make my own template. I closely followed the steps explained in the documentation .

When I select my template in backend -> components -> ccomment -> Settings -> your component settings I get an error:
"500 - Layout „readmore“ not found".

When I copy the default template to /components/com_comment/templates/default_backup and select this one in the ccomment backend, everything works fine.


When I copy the default template to my templates html folder, rename it and select it in the ccomment backend, the error occurs.

I am familiar with template overrides in J! and am quite an experienced user.

With the default template enabled, my PHP error log says:
PHP Notice: Undefined property: ccommentComponentContentPlugin::$params in .../administrator/components/com_comment/plugins/com_content/content.php on line 85

I don't now if this PHP error notice is related to my template override problem.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers
gerhard

Hey Gerhard,
Thanks for testing, finding and telling me about this error! I just fixed it:
compojoom.com/component/ars/repository/dev-ccomment

It was just a slash missing from a file path:
$this->addTemplatePath(JPATH_THEMES . $appl->getTemplate() . '/html/com_comment/templates/'.$commentTemplate);
 
had to be
$this->addTemplatePath(JPATH_THEMES .'/'. $appl->getTemplate() . '/html/com_comment/templates/'.$commentTemplate);

Sorry about that!

Thank you for the quick fix Daniel.

Could you please tell me in which file this needs to be changed.

I'd rather change it there before downloading the whole extension again from the dev repo.

I then wait for the next official release and update.

Many thanks
gerhard

components\com_comment\views\comments\view.html.php
You'll see the line 2 times in that file.

And you can take the dev. release... It contains fixes for few other things as well ;)
